Mini Enduro Cup:
the season got underway in Italy
After the success of the first round in Italy at the end of May, Mini Enduro Cup was back to action for the second exciting round. The town of Monteils, in France, hosted the race thanks to the impeccable organization of the Motoclub des 2 Vallées.
More than 70 talented young riders competed on technical and exciting courses, demonstrating skill and passion for this discipline. Two special tests: one Cross Test of 1,5 km and one Enduro Test of about 2 minutes. The race loop was 20 km long and characterized by a series of climbs and descents, as well as rocky single tracks inside forests. The track included a single time control located near the paddock.
Day 1
In the 125 Mini class, the Frenchman Emerick Vergote took the victory ahead of Italian rider Gioele Scibilia by 21 seconds. Third on the podium was the French Ewen Forestier-Chiron, who finished the race just 11 seconds behind Scibilia.
All-Italian challenge in the 50 Mini class with Davide Cabass and Nicolò Mancinelli fighting for victory throughout the day. At the end, Cabass won over Mancinelli by a minute behind.
An Italian story also in the Junior class. Exciting challenge between Cristian Marioli and Evan Moschetti, who fought for the final victory until the last special test. Marioli was the first to stop the clock and took the victory by less than two seconds over Moschetti. P3 for Duccio Giraldi.
In the Women 125 Mini category, France dominated the scene. Jean Satine took the victory over championship leader Charlene Boudon, who finished second. Pauline Nicon finished third.
Third consecutive victory for the young Lady Anika Dal Pezzo, who set the best time in the Women Junior. The Italian took the victory ahead of Desirée Carollo and Sofia Chermaz.
